Description

Anders Petersen: A Life in Photography Born in Stockholm in 1944, Anders Petersen studied photography under Christer Strömholm at Fotoskalen from 1966 to 1968. This early training laid the foundation for his unique approach to photography. Petersen is perhaps best known for his book Café Lehmitz, first published in 1978 and now recognized as a landmark of post-war European photography. The book captures a bygone era - a Hamburg bar teeming with people from all walks of life who became like a warm-hearted family to Petersen. He has continued to take photographs in his own distinctive style, following the rhythms of his own life. Since co-founding SAFTRA, the Stockholm group of photographers, in 1970, Petersen's work has been marked by its individuality and insight into the human experience.
